[Jmol-users] Re-enabling Java for Jmol on OS X 10.8.3
I was stung by this one too. For reasons I don't understand, pages with Jmol don't stimulate the Inactive Plugin feature but other Java pages do and hence facilitate reenabling of Java plugin. I wonder if there is something we need to improve. If it annoyed Henry and myself it may cause havoc with users.

iPad performance varies with version. Newer iPads are at least 2x faster than the original. Be sure you are referring to the latest rendition of JSmol -- huge improvements in performance lately.

[Jmol-users] Re-enabling Java for Jmol on OS X 10.8.3
A recent upgrade of OS X to 10.8.3 disabled Java on Safari (whilst Firefox remained OK). Turns out the issue was a failure by the Java sub system to communicate its presence correctly to Safari. If you have seen this syndrome, it can be fixed simply by visiting http://javatester.org/version.html and clicking on the inactive plugin box. Thereafter, Java in Safari is restored. Pretty brain dead from Apple: sorry it does seem as if this company really does not want you to run Java! JSMol is certainly getting there, but at the moment for eg surface renderings and other FPU intensive operations =, JSMol seems around 10 times slower than Jmol. And on an iPad Mimi it must be closer to 50 times slower (but it gets there in the end). -- Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
